Elements at Risk Sample Clauses

Elements at Risk. Demographic changes will directly affect the elements at risk by means of increases or decreases in the population and/or the population density. Such changes may be effected by the construction of new buildings (a more likely scenario) or by more (or fewer) people inhabiting existing buildings. Each is likely to have an effect on both the local population and the local population density and, dependent upon the spatial interaction with the landslide hazards, may increase the elements at risk in terms of both buildings and people. Indeed, the construction of new buildings is likely to place people in previously unoccupied areas and may thus introduce new risks. Demographic changes also affect the elements at risk on linear transport infrastructure. An increase in the population of a town or village inevitably increase the traffic levels on roads connecting it to the outside world and thus the number, and value, of vehicles and road users using it at any given point in time also increases (see also Section 3.3.2).

Elements at Risk. New infrastructure construction will introduce additional elements at risk, which are likely to be of higher value than the elements that they replace. Such infrastructure also can provide a degree of protection to elements previously at risk: linear infrastructure cuttings can function, albeit inadvertently, as a debris trap for example providing protection to elements at risk further down slope It is also worth noting that as infrastructure ages its condition may also deteriorate, regardless of the maintenance regime applied during its in-service life. While this implies that its value may decrease, in monetary terms as the costs of restoration to an as new’ condition increases, its value as an asset is likely to be dependent upon, and proportionate to, the population that it serves and, by extrapolation, depends upon it for transport, electricity, etc (see also Section 3.2.1).

Elements at Risk. The statistics institute INSEE provides extensive information about the residential buildings of the towns in the area studied: for example the number of residences (but also their status as either main residences, second homes or vacant dwellings) for each census between 1968 and 2006. However, only values for 1990, 1999 and 2006 were used to extrapolate future values, in order to reflect the current trends. In order to forecast future values for 2030, and thanks to a quite steady evolution trend, a linear regression has been performed (Table 18). Based on the forecasts of main residences and of population, the average number of dwellers has been computed. This indicator is a useful one to assess the population potentially exposed to the effects of landslide hazards.

Table 19 shows that the ratio of second house exceeds 40% in all the towns, and is near 90% for Enchastrayes. It also indicates that these ratios are not expected to change a lot in the next 20 years. Table 19 Predicted evolution of the proportion of secondary homes in the towns of the studied site 2006 2030 Barcelonnette 48% 58% Enchastrayes 89% 89% Faucon-de-B. 46% 47% Jausiers 60% 62% Saint-Pons 40% 43% The average number of dwellers for the main residences of the towns is also expected to remain relatively constant: this indicator will stay between 2.0 and 2.5 in the towns of the studied site. Finally, the number of vacant dwellings, which i...
